Objective To observe the protective effect of goserelin on ovarian function of premenopausal patients with breast cancer during chemotherapy. Methods Forty patients with breast cancer under 40 received adjuvant chemotherapy were randomly divided intotest group(20 cases) and control group (20 cases). Compared the recovery rate and time of menstruation between two groups. Results All the 40 patients finished the treatment. Recovery ratio of normal ovarian function in test group and control group was 75% and 50% (P =0.013) respectively, and the median menstrual recovery time in two groups was 4.65 months and 6.65 months (P = 0.046) respectively. Statistically significant differences were found between two groups. Conclusion Goserelin can effectively protect ovarian function during chemotherapy , increase the ratio of normal ovarian function, shorten menstrual recovery time, and shows good tolerance.

Objective To explore the relationship among emotional resilience,stress and school adjustment.Methods Adolescent life events check-list,adolescent emotional resilience scale and school adjustment scale of middle school students were conducted among 394 junior high school students.Results (1)The emotional resilience score and emotion recovery score of male junior high school students(46.07±8.56,24.43±5.80) were higher than that of female ones(44.39±8.39,23.27±5.37),and the differences were statistically significant(t=1.97,2.05,P<0.05).The total score of emotional resilience(45.46±8.50,44.83±8.56) was not statistically related with whether they were the only children(t=0.68,P=0.50).The emotional resilience score and positive emotion score of rural junior high school students(44.04±8.53,20.63±5.35)were lower than that of urban ones (46.46± 8.34,22.15 ±4.72),and the differences were statistically significant(t=-2.86,-2.99,P<0.01).The total score of emotional resilience (47.23±7.82,44.63±8.45,43.00±8.97) in different grades was statistically significant (F=8.86,P=0.00),and the first grade students were higher than the second and third year students.(2)Psychological stress was negatively related with emotional resilience and school adjustment(r=-0.23~-0.35,P<0.01),and emotional resilience was positively correlated with school adjustment(r=0.12 ~ 0.29,P<0.01).The relationship between stress and school adjustment were mediated by positive emotion and emotional recovery (the mediating effect were 11.11%,21.15%).Conclusion Frotional resilience plays a mediating role between psychological stress and school adjustment.

Objective To compare the curative effect of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate and compound ammonium glycyrrhetate in patients with liver cirrhosis of decompensated.Methods Eighty-six patients with liver cirrhosis of decompensated were enrolled into the study and randomly divided into two groups: the treatment group(n=43) were given magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate once a day in addition to routine treatment;the control group(n=43) were given compound ammonium glycyrrhetate once a day in addition to routine treatment.The clinical manifestation,including symptoms,signs and hepatic function were observed.The clinical lab data,including blood routine examination,urine routine test and kidney function of all patients from two groups were collected before and after the treatments.The adverse drug reactions were monitored throughout the whole therapy.Results ALT and AST turned to normal in 97.7%(42/43) and 90.7%(39/43) of patients respectively in the treatment group,which were significantly higher than those of 72.1%(31/43) and 74.4%(32/43) respectively in the control group( x2=9.86 and 4.73,respectively,Ps<0.05). Time to turning to normal in ALT and AST were(21.6±9.1)d and(23.1±10.6)d in the treatment group,which were significantly lower than those of(37.5±17.8)d,and(46.7±19.4)d respectively in the control group(t=5.23 and 7.01,respectively,Ps<0.01).Conclusion The results suggested that magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate had better effect on alleviating symptoms and decreasing enzyme in treatment of liver cirrhosis of decompensated stage.

Objective To evaluate the effects of high glucose on autophagy and apoptosis of podocyte and explore the signaling pathway in high glucose-induce podocyte autophagy.Methods Differentiated mouse podocytes were exposed to high glucose(30 mmol/L) or rapamycin (autophagy enhancer,1 μg/L) or LY294002 (a selective PI3K inhibitor,50 mmol/L) for 24 h.The formations of autophagy were observed by electron microscopy and acridine orange staining.Apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry.The expression of autophagy protein LC3-Ⅱ/Ⅰ and Beclin-1 as well as the phosphorylation of AKT and mTOR were examined by Western blotting analysis.Results High glucose induced podocytes apoptosis,increased autophagy and the expression of autophagy-associated proteins (all P < 0.05).Rapamycin further increased the expression of LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1 protein (all P < 0.05),but LY294002 inhibited partialiy the protein expression of LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1 induced by high glucose (both P < 0.05).Treatment with rapamycin increased the phosphorylation of AKT,but reduced that of mTOR in podocytes.Moreover,LY294002 inhibited phosphorylation of both AKT and mTOR (both P < 0.05).Conclusions High glucose promotes podocyte autophagy and apoptosis.High glucose-induced autophagy is mediated partly through PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway.

As an important branch of systematic biology, metabonomics is an emerging discipline following genomics, proteomics and transcriptomics. It focuses on the quality and quantity changes of the small molecular metabolites in appointed physiological or pathological state, and provides important informa?tion for studies of diseases mechanism, clinical early diagnosis and prognosis prediction. Compared with tra?ditional clinical diagnostic method ( single index) , metabonomics method can more comprehensively analyze metabolites changes in the body. This review introduces the metabonomics and summarizes its application in thyroid diseases.

Objective To evaluate the rules and features of the pseudoenhancement phenomenon of renal cysts during the multi-phases of contrast enhanced MSCT scan.Methods Ninety one patients with 112 simple renal cysts with B-ultrasound,CT examination,improved clinically enrolled in this retrospective study.The attenuation of the renal cysts were measured blindly in the images of CT plain scan and scans of arterial,venal and secrete phases,and the attenuation change of the cysts between pre-and post-enhanced scans were calculated; the accuracies of pseudoenhancement judging were calculated with 10 HU,15 HU and 18 HU as a threshold;the size were recorded; degree of intra renal parenchyma of the cyst were also confirmed,and so renal cysts were divided into three groups:type Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ; The differences of attenuation among 3 enhancement phases,different size,different type were analyzed statistically with the Kruskal-wallis rank sum test,the correlation between the diameter and the pseudoenhancement in each enhancement phases were analyzed statistically with Spearman test.Results The attenuation median of the 112 cysts in plain scan,arterial,venal and secrete phase was 6.0 HU,11.0 HU,12.0 HU and 12.0 HU respectively,there was significant difference(x2=53.32,P<0.01).The attenuation of the cysts in enhanced phases was higher than unenhanced.The range of attenuation change of the cysts between pre-and postenhanced scans was-10 to 31 HU,the number of cysts in groups of pseudoenhancement of 1 to 5 HU and 6 to 10 HU in each enhanced phase was dominant.The pseudoenhancement median of arterial,venal and secrete phase was 4.0 HU,5.0 HU and 6.0 HU respectively,There was significant difference among three groups(x2=10.062,P<0.01).Taking 10 HU,15 HU and 18 HU as threshold for judging pseudoenhancement,the accuracy was 83.0%(239/288),95.1%(274/288) and 96.9%(279/288) respectively; Pseudoenhancement of small cysts(≤10 mm) was higher than other groups in each enhancement phase,and there was significant difference(P<0.05).Type Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ renal cysts were 62,23 and 27 respectively,the pseudoenhancement median of type Ⅰ renal cyst was 5.0 HU,6.0 HU and 8.0 HU respectively in arterial,venous,and excretion phase,which were higher than Type Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0.05).It showed low negative correlation between pseudoenhancemen and diameter in arterial,venous and secrete phase(r =-0.326,-0.332 and-0.447,P< 0.01).Conclusion The pseudoenhancement correlated with the renal cyst size,the type and the enhance phases,which should be considered when making diagnosis.
